Pull, Balance and Snatch!

***If you are volunteering or on the team for the Raleigh Run for our Heroes 5k check out our Facebook post about this Saturday’s race***

Today we will be working on getting better at the Olympic snatch.  This will mostly be about technique work.  The pulls and snatch balance will stay light and are warm-ups to you working up to 85% of your 1 rep max.  The pulls reinforce the first and second pulling positions and good hip extension while the snatch balance teaches us to quickly get under and receive the bar.   When you get to the full snatch make sure to set up the same every time and focus on perfecting each lift.

Get those toes to bar done and start swinging!
